" The ' Cyclopaedia of Anatomy and Physiology' is unquestionably one of the best of the scientific works ofthe day . * * Dr . Todd has learnt tho magic art by which men of most opposite pursuits have been associated in one common and brilliant task . * * Few works have appeared in this country in which so large and distinguished an association of contributors have been engaged . * * If we wished for a means of estimating a man ' s taste for his profession , we would ask , does this Cyclopaedia grace his book-shelves ? " —Lancet , August 22 , 1840 . " We cannot dismiss this notice without once more formally calling the earnest attention of our readers to the ' Cyclopaedia of Anatomy and Physiology .

In order to stamp upon
this important undertaking—hitherto a desideratum m Medical literature—that character of authority to which it aspires , care has been taken in the distribution of the various subjects to confide the execution of them to persons of acknowledged ability aud experience in the several departments ; ancl thus the most distinguished writers in Great Britain and the Continent of Europe have been associated for the production of a work which , when complete , may fairly claim to be considered the most valuable publication of its kind extant in any language . The " Cyclopaedia of Practical Surgery " will be issued in Parts , similar in size and form to the Cyclopaedias of Medicine and Anatomy , 5 s . each , every alternate Month . Six Parts are already published , and the whole Work will be completed , as speedily as possible , in Twenty Pans .
